Background Task Monitoring page

The Background Task Monitoring page is accessible from the main menu. The page is also accessible as a pane on the GUI pages from which a background task is launched; for example, the Add Enclosure page provides a pane to monitor the Add Enclosure background task.

The Background Task Monitoring page displays an historical list of background tasks. For each background task, the process or procedure performed is shown along with the hardware/physical component affected. The current status of the background task is also shown.

For an in-progress background task, the page enables you to monitor each step of the background task as it executes. The page also provides additional details for selected tasks.

By default, records in the table are sorted in the order that the background tasks were initiated. Clicking a column heading sorts the table by that field.

Each task is color-coded to indicate status:

Green

Indicates success.

Red

Indicates failure.

Blue

Indicates in progress.

Controls are also available for deleting selected background tasks, all completed background tasks, or all failed background tasks.
